The objective of this report is to compare costs and performance parameters of different energy storage technologies. Furthermore, forecasts of cost and performance parameters across each of these technologies are made.
By varying certain parameters (e.g., use case, duty cycle, or assumptions governing the cost of energy, exclusion of full life cycle costs), technology providers can produce higher or lower costs of storage.
Informing the viable application of electricity storage technologies, including batteries and pumped hydro storage, with the latest data and analysis on costs and performance.

This report defines and evaluates cost and performance parameters of six battery energy storage technologies (BESS) (lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries, redox flow batteries, sodium-sulfur batteries, sodium metal halide batteries, and zinc-hybrid cathode batteries) and four non-BESS storage technologies (pumped storage hydropower
In support of this challenge, PNNL is applying its rich history of battery research and development to provide DOE and industry with a guide to current energy storage costs and performance metrics for various technologies.
As part of the Energy Storage Grand Challenge, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is leading the development of a detailed cost and performance database for a variety of energy storage technologies that is easily accessible and referenceable for
This article presents a comprehensive cost analysis of energy storage technologies, highlighting critical components, emerging trends, and their implications for stakeholders within the dynamic energy landscape.
In this article, the investment cost of an energy storage system that can be put into commercial use is composed of the power component investment cost, energy storage media investment cost, EPC cost, and BOP cost. The cost of the investment is calculated by the following equation: (1) CAPEX = C P × Cap + C E × Cap × Dur + C EPC + C BOP
Informing the viable application of electricity storage technologies, including batteries and pumped hydro storage, with the latest data and analysis on costs and performance. Energy storage technologies, store energy either as electricity or heat/cold, so it can be used at a later time.
Electricity Energy Storage Technology Options: A White Paper Primer on Applications, Costs and Benefits. EPRI-1020676, Final Report, December 2010, Electric Power Research Institute, Palo Alto, California. RedT Energy Storage. 2018. “Gen 2 machine pricing starting at $490/kWh.”
Specifically, we varied the cost reduction rate by 10 % to demonstrate the effect of different factors on the economic performance of these technologies. It's crucial to note that this section evaluates the economic performance of energy storage technologies over diverse time scales.
Forecast procedures are described in the main body of this report. C&C or engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) costs can be estimated using the footprint or total volume and weight of the battery energy storage system (BESS). For this report, volume was used as a proxy for these metrics.
Schmidt et al. established an experience curve data set and analyzed and predicted the energy storage cost based on experience rates by analyzing the cumulative installed nominal capacity and cumulative investment, among others.
